It's not ideal, I agree - the main reason I use it over lighter & more open services is the integrated CI. I've considered replacing it with sourcehut, but I don't have available hardware to dedicate to the VM-based CI.

Genuine question: why has CI become so prominent that even small projects cannot live without? You have a small instance with 2 people using it. Why is CI a deal breaker?

For me, it means I can develop on mac, have CI build for me on linux, and push built containers/other artifacts wherever they're needed.

It also means I can do things like automatically rebuild containers nightly/weekly to get security updates.
